Does it get on your nerves when - people touch your belly???

luvbug00 replied: i hated it. that's just me. i think they should at least ask first though.

lisar replied: If a stranger would touch my belly I would touch theres and see how they liked it. I just didnt like it. I hated it. I didnt want some stranger comming up to me and touching me. I know people who didnt care and its fine with me if someone else doesnt mind it. I actually had a shirt that said dont rub it or something like that.

moped replied: No it never really bothered me - cause I love bellys too

Twelve Volt Man replied: I've never really minded, as long as it's a moderately attractive woman who's doing it. Now, when a guy does it, that's a different story!

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: There was really only one person who did that to me regularly. I live in a town that has always got a TON of pregnant women and I guess most people have learned to respect privacy. Either that or they get to rub bellies in church and don't need to do it at the store. As for the one person who did it regularly, his name was Dennis and he was a coworker. He was about 64 and always asked me how his little Kelly girl was doing. He passed away about 4 months after I had Logan. I still kind of miss him.

MyBrownEyedBoy replied:
OMG, I LOL'd over that one. Jay, you're too much!

gr33n3y3z replied:
that would make me sad bc ppl. like that were special

MyBrownEyedBoy replied:
He was very special. They nearly had to close the lab when he passed away because so many of us wanted to go to his service. Even in February in Idaho.

Danalana replied: I was thinking how sad it would be if I gained so much weight that people just thought I was pregnant...if they started touching me, that would be too much

~Roo'sMama~ replied: I didn't mind it when friends did it, but I didn't like it at all when strangers or distant acquaintances did.

Danalana replied: I have never touched anybody's belly...not even someone I really knew. I'm not sure why, but I'm assuming because I think touch is a big deal. Or something like that.

indywndy_04 replied:
You can touch my big belly - but I will warn ya...he kicks hard!!!

Danalana replied: Ha...ok

MotherForever2043 replied: I don't mind at all. My co-workers touch it all the time. I warn them about the hard kicks, but they do it anyway They're always suprised by the kicks for some reason . As for strangers I don't mind as long as they ask first.

**Plus, as long as they make sure they don't wake up the baby and make him kick; then it's alright with me. **

Calimama replied: It bothered DH more than me. Sometimes it was weird.. but whatever.

lovemy2 replied: I didn't mind if people I knew did it....but strangers - it all depended on my mood....

MyBabeMaddie replied: I never really had that problem people always stared at me but never actually touched me... I guess its cause I was sooo fat and disgusting

Danalana replied:
Whatever
You're beautiful...

Mommy2BAK replied: I don't really mind it, but not many people have tried to touch my belly other than family, friends and co-workers. Now if it were a stranger, that might be sort of akward!

MyBabeMaddie replied:
haha, thanks Dana, so are you
